This month's cover highlights the article Nup358 restricts ER-mitochondria connectivity by modulating mTORC2/Akt/GSK3β signalling by Joseph, Misha Kalarikkal and colleagues. The image shows a human ...

Specifically, Auletta highlights the emerging science in stem cell transplants and cell therapies, including treatments like chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. He also discussed topics ...

This indicates that GLP-1 receptor agonists lead to greater reduction in overall body fat than that in muscle mass, resulting in an overall body fat percentage decrease of around 4.5%.

Testosterone helps release growth hormones, which stimulate tissue growth, and it connects with nuclear receptors in DNA, which causes protein synthesis (or muscle growth). Turner points out that ...

In a surprising discovery, scientists have found that the heart possesses 'sweet taste' receptors, similar to those on our tongues, and that stimulating these receptors with sweet substances can ...

Additionally, their research may explain why high consumption of artificially sweetened beverages is linked to arrhythmogenesis, or an irregular heartbeat. Not only are these sweet taste receptors ...

hCG - Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) rises in pregnancy and binds to the TSH receptors in the thyroid gland, suppressing TSH levels in the first trimester. TRH - Thyroid releasing hormone (TRH ...

where it binds to TRH receptors and stimulates the genes that express the TSH β subunits. Apart from these thyrotropic effects, TRH also regulates the conjugation of the TSH α and β chains and ...

GH secretion can also be induced by other peptides, such as ghrelin, which interacts with receptors present in somatotropic cells. It is well established that GH acts directly on target cells or ...
